Cobham Sea Tel 1500, 25/40, 81in Ka, Ext AC

Secure business continuity with the latest multi-band satcom antennas innovations Available in single Ku- or Ka-band, or in dual Ku/Ka-band configurations, the Sea Tel 1500 is a cutting-edge antenna system that enablesvessels to seamlessly switch from Ku- to Ka-band in a single click, with no physical intervention saving both time and costs. With Sea Tel 1500, the push-button electronic band switching capabilities usually reserved for 2.4 meter multi-band antennas are possible on a system with a much smaller footprint. It provides the freedom to move in and out of Ka-band High Throughput Satellite coverage maps and maintain broadband connectivity using Ku-band VSAT services, providing the peace of mind that more efficient operations are enabled at all times. Unless using the Sea Tel 1500, the only way to switch VSAT bands on a 1.5 meter antenna is for trained technicians to come aboard and physically swap out the RF electronics in the radome. With Sea Tel 1500, Cobham Satcom introduces a step change that verifies the business case for diversifying antenna size when developing or expanding satellite parks on cruise, offshore and government vessels, as well as mega yachts, in order to reduce both capital and operational costs while augmenting global connectivity performance. Optimise short and long term connectivity transition with futureready solutions.

As the market’s first true 1.5 meter Ku/Ka dual-band VSAT antenna, service providers can essentially offer two antennas but only take the same deck space that a single 1.5m system would usually require. This reduces the footprint needed for a truly multiband antenna installation onboard the vessels. Because of this, Sea Tel 1500 is one of the smartest possible long-term investments in maritime satcom, especially as it also offers the ability to convert to different frequencies on networks using geo-stationary satellites, and forthcoming satellite constellations, such as LEO, MEO and HEO. Future upgrades are easy with Sea Tel 1500 because it has been designed with hybrid networking in mind. High performance with lower lifetime costs thanks to industry-standard Sea Tel technology Sea Tel 1500 delivers unmatched performance and agility through its unique combination of first-to-market innovations and new levels of versatility, integrated with Sea Tel’s fieldproven and industry-standard maritime antenna technology. Built to the highest specifications Sea Tel 1500 Ku/Ka dual-band VSAT antennas come as certified satcom solutions to deliver full connectivity and operation 24/7, regardless of location and weather conditions – now and in the future.

High reliability, high performance and complete peace of mind come as standard when choosing Sea Tel 1500 for any onboard satellite installation, even if 2.4 meter antennas are already in use. The system goes through the same stringent testing and qualification processes as the entire Sea Tel range and leverages the same intelligent antenna management features for faster access to antenna data and diagnostics, resulting in exceptionally low to zero requirements for in-port servicing and maintenance.
